At the sports desk: my favorite teams...

The ND men's hoops team ground out an 81-49 win last night over Savannah State.
The Irish are now 9-2 on the year. Best and most encouraging stat--the Irish picked up their rebounding, grabbing 44 caroms to their opponent's 21.

The Michigan men's hoops team similarly ground out a win over Florida Gulf Coast, 76-59.
The Wolverines continue to shoot the 3-ball well, hitting 12 of them.
Best news for Michigan--for the first time in 3 years, they're ranked! They're now at #24.
Quite a rise for the Maize and Blue under John Beilein--last year the team finished with 10 wins and 22 losses.
